The XLogic Alpha-Link Audio I/O Product Range from Solid State Logic is a new collection of highly flexible and fully featured multichannel audio converters for studio, live and broadcast applications at an incredible price/performance ratio. Solid State Logic will exhibit the XLogic Alpha-Link range at the 2007 Winter NAMM Show, January 18 to 21 (Booth #6905).
The Alpha-Link Audio I/O product range is comprised of three models, all featuring high-quality, 24-channel SSL-enhanced AD/DA converter circuitry and offering a choice of digital audio format options. The Alpha-Link MADI SX is a MADI & AES/EBU based converter, while the Alpha-Link AX and Alpha-Link MADI AX are ADAT Lightpipe-based converters.
The XLogic Alpha-Link series of audio converters are stylishly designed, 2U-high rack-mountable units with deceptively simple front panel controls. Each offers a comprehensive input/output routing matrix used to set up global connections between the various I/O connections that make all combinations possible. There is also a handy front panel headphone connection and a metering section for the analogue inputs and outputs with an AD/DA selection button, mode indicator LEDs and 24 tri-colour level LEDs.
All Alpha-Link units can be used as standalone format converters, or when used in combination with a Soundscape Mixpander PCI card, they provide a powerful, highly flexible I/O solution for native PC-based audio workstations. When the unit is connected to a Mixpander, the inputs and outputs can be routed individually from the PC using the Soundscape Mixer software.
ALPHA-LINK MADI-SX: Professional MADI to AES/EBU & AD DA converter
Featuring up to 64 channels of digital MADI I/O at 48 kHz (or 32 channels at 96 kHz), 12 stereo AES/EBU digital I/O, 24 balanced analogue I/O, TDM format Expansion Bus and much more, the Alpha-Link MADI SX delivers a dependable, versatile, high-quality MADI to AES/EBU based conversion solution.
Alpha-Link MADI SX is priced at $3,595.00.
ALPHA-LINK MADI-AX: Professional MADI to ADAT Lightpipe and AD/DA converter
